The Treasury is hiding KSh 150.7 BILLION in a secret "Sovereign Bond Proceeds Account", OUTSIDE the Consolidated Fund.
This is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
No parliamentary oversight. No Auditor General. No Controller of Budget.
We demand: Name the bank. Open the books. Freeze the account.
Thika road cost Ksh. 32 Billion and the ripple effect can be felt after all these years, Ruto has borrowed close to Ksh. 5 trillion since he came in office, show me projects worth 5 trillion since Ruto came in office?
When Uhuru left power, NSSF was at flat rate of KSh 200. For Ruto, it's 6% on the employer side and 6% on the employee side.
When Uhuru was leaving power, the dollar was KSh 118. Ruto took it to 160 and brought it down to 129.
When Uhuru was leaving power, petrol was going for KSh 158 with subsidy. Ruto took it to 217, brought it down to 178, and now it’s at 198 with subsidy.
When Uhuru was leaving power, the maximum NHIF contribution was KSh 1,700. For Ruto, it's 2.75% of your salary.
During Uhuru’s time, KSh 100 would give you about 6 KPLC units of tokens, but under Ruto you now get about 3 units for the same amount.
During Uhuru’s time, VAT across key sectors was 8%, but under Ruto it has gone up to 16%.
For Uhuru, affordable housing meant no deductions on your payslip, but under Ruto, you now have an additional mandatory deduction.
Despite all this, borrowing hasn’t stopped. In fact, it has picked up.
So, how has Ruto reduced the cost of living ?🤔

Speaking about the deep contradictions in human nature, Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada said:
“Some people dream of having a swimming pool at home, while those who have one barely use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a profound sense of loss, while others often complain about the relatives still in their lives. Those without a partner long for one, while those who have a partner often fail to appreciate them. The hungry would give anything for a meal, while the full complain about the taste of their food. Those without a car dream of owning one, while those who have a car are always looking for a better one.
The key to happiness is gratitude—to truly see and value what we already have, and to understand that somewhere, someone would give everything for what we take for granted.”
No civilization is perfectly level. Therefore, either a civilization is expanding or contracting.
Collapsing birth rates mean that most cultures are tending towards extinction!
Expanding is the only option for those who want LIfE, for those who CARE about the FUTURE.
Kenyan Debt: Kshs 5T to Kshs 12 T
Unemployment: 4.6% to 7.6%
Kenyan poverty index: 32% to 49% with over 21 million Kenyans facing extreme poverty.
Kenyan Consumers Price index : 132.43 to 146.56 Index points.
In simple terms, life is more hard now for everyday Kenyan than it was before UDA was elected.
That is the reality on the ground.
